2138 was the first MKA fitted with ZTR control system, which includes traction control, replacing the Morrison Knudsen system. This will allow heavier trains to be hauled without wheel spin. Could also mean the generators get fried from working too hard for too long. This happened to the DQ class EMD's. But then, EE's are tougher and more reliable :-)
